ENDOFOAM
INORGANIC BLOWING AGENTS
Hebron offers a wide range of foaming agents based on inorganic salts (ENDOFOAM®). Thanks to our high experience in foaming agents, as well as our manufacturing procedures, we develop grades according to the consumer's need.
Advantages:
- Lightening the weight of the materials (density reduction) keeping the surface smooth.
- Improves thermal and acoustic insulation.
- Increases the ability to absorb impacts.
- Safe grades
- It does not emit any type of smell or residue in the final product.
Main applications:
- Foaming of rigid PVC and PP: we have hybrid grades for extruded pipes and other profiles.
- Injection molding of PP parts for packaging in contact with food, automotive components and parts for transport such as pallets, boxes and plastic containers.
- It can be used as a nucleating agent to support other foaming processes.
Presentation:
- Powder
- Masterbatch (pellets containing inorganics salts, resin and other additives). Our masterbatch manufacturing process allows high percentages of foaming agent (> 50% by weight) maintaining maximum quality.
The main ENDOFOAM grades of our portfolio are detailed below:
